Maybird released their first single “Keep in Line” from the EP this spring. DIY Magazinecalled it a “timeless psych-pop single” and also noted that it “often toes the line between pure psych-pop euphoria and a sense of frustration and restlessness, something that also feeds into the lyrics.” Their second single, “Grace” was premiered via Entertainment Weekly and they spoke with Josh Netsky of Maybird, who said: “The song is about desiring the ability to be graceful so that you can win somebody’s affection…But that somebody is kind of out there – like not in your league.”
